Truant

Description

This Pokémon is lazy and would prefer to lounge around rather than attack. As a result, this Pokémon will refuse to do anything for one action out of every round, and will instead simply lounge around, doing nothing. The owner of this Pokémon may choose to let it "loaf around" for any one of the three actions in a round, during which time it will do nothing but regain 5% energy. If the trainer provides commands for all three actions of a round, the Truant Pokémon will ignore one of them at random and loaf around instead. Nevertheless, the Pokémon with this ability are quite powerful when they actually do shift themselves to fight, and as a result cause an extra 2% damage with all their damaging attacks, regardless of type.
